made in america. the headline no doubt about it, was this public dressing down by president trump of the republican senate caucus here at the white house this afternoon in which he invited senate caucus over for lunch. 49 of 52 republican senators were here. the president brought the cameras into that lunchroom. gave a 10 minute or so speech which he said the following, telling these senators told them, look you have to sell this health care reform bill. you have to pass this health care reform bill. if you don't, the president said, don't go on the august recess. >> i have pen in hand. you never had that before. you know for seven years you had an easy route. we'll repeal, we'll replace and he is is never going to sign it. but i'm signing it. so it's a little bit different. any senator who votes against starting debate is really telling america that you're fine with obamacare. reporter: now senator mitch mcconnell emerged from the meeting, spoke to us outside here on the north lawn and implored repub

so in these four areas not to mention language and culture of course america is still. it doesn't matter if it's number one or number two it depends on where is it number one or number two but on a global basis the fact that the u.s. is so central in these key areas of global management in global markets that means that no matter who is president actually of the united states the u.s. is still going to play these roles because it's important for america to do them so you see the self correcting nature of the system to by the way in my opinion it doesn't correct fast enough but but the self correcting nature meaning that trade continues to grow even though the u.s. is not to decide to step out of the right so there is this there is a system that is greater than just america and america has to choose what parts of the system it wants to continue to play a strong role in and even lead and obviously it's very ambivalent about that decision. what about united states and then with election it has shown that democratic process can actually split people in the night. in for a l

big day in america. but we must also fight the unfair trade practices that have gutted our industry, and that includes cracking down on the predatory on-line sales of foreign goods, which is absolutely killing our shoppers and our shopping centers. if you look at what's going on with shopping centers and stores and jobs in stores, it's been very, very tough for them. they've had a very hard time, closing at numbers and records that have never been seen before. so we have to stop that. the on-line predatory practices. since the beginning of the year, we have already created over 50,000 brand-new manufacturing jobs, and we're just getting started. we will lift our citizens from welfare to work. we will turn boarded-up communities into new outposts of american commerce. and we will once again rediscover our heritage as a manufacturing nation. we used to be a manufacturing nation. not so much anymore, but i will tell you, you look at michigan, you look at some states that have really moved, you know. in penn

america, rural america increasingly left behind by an economy that works for the privileged few and not for all americans. we deserve a better deal.
